Polish students of electronics also joined the project

One of my students' groups has decided to join the project. They are from 2nd form (aged 15-17)and they are taught to be technicians of electronics. That is why their curriculum differs fom the students' ones whose main profile is information technology. These groups have not only different subjects but also different acceses to the computers and the internet.
Students are eager to co-operate and participate in the project. I have decided to adjust their English curriculum to the projects requirements.
